A tale of the lonely soul who is desperate to feel connection. The Asterisk Zero is the child who opens fire on fellow school children, with no understanding of the depth and complexity of the pain they are causing. This song is a soul searching…

Standing, waiting, shivering, waiting, hoping, waiting, crying - all the while being cruelly mocked by the passage of time, and my analogue watch. It was not a very nice night.

midnight is approaching, the city still alive
moaning and blinking and on into the night

someone is reading, someone needs a light

This track is the result of putting Kavin's excellent track [Propitiation](http://alonetone.com/kavin/tracks/propitiation) through my Steve Reich style phased looper.
It's a beautiful piece but also quite a sparse sound which lead me to think…
